Will Track's New Releases be in Number Series?
« on: May 08, 2010, 12:24:39 AM »
Kind of curious to know if Track's next ball/s will be in the 5-7-9 series or will it be something new all together? I think alot of people underestimated the number balls because so many bowlers were more concern about the name of the ball than what it was actually intent to do. Though I bowl in a area that's dominated by Hammer and Storm fans I do get those that looks past the names like the 505C or 920A and really like how those balls react. Really hoping Track has something neat planned soon and will continue what they did this past season.

505T and 715T are now on the approved list. But they aren't going to run out of names. Eventually they are going to change the cores in the bowling balls, as Billy has said. Like a 740, 510, 945. You never know. Its almost impossible to run out of names.

In the original post I said

"I'm guessing you will see some new cores in the 5 and 7 series since they are running out of letters for the 505 and 715 core."

They are running out of letters for the 505 and 715 series not for the entire line.

I think some guys are gettig confiused by the letters. The A,C,T letters are for defining ball motion shape at the breakpoint. The core number and series number indicate the strength of the ball overall and will be more influential to the ball's strength than the ACT system. A 505A and for example 705A do not reflect the same ball motion. The 7 Series is still stronger than the 5 series etc. AND all bowling balls fall into the ACT system.

So they could release another 505A, as a different ball or it isn''t likely?

The number and letter system, as is limits them if they stay with 5 7 and 9 series because there wouldn''t be more then likely a 530 to 599 ever made. Same for the 7 and 9 series you think?

I was just trying to say from the rate they are going they would make a 715a,715c,715t, then would have to go to a new core such as a 716 or 717 and start over with 717a ect ect.

No I meant to say 920t. Not sure of a 7 series release yet. Can't wait for the new releases though. If anyone out there doesn't have a 715C, I strongly suggest getting it. The ball is just absolutely stupid good.

Good thing they came up with the numbering system to make it easier.

It is very easy. First number stands for mid, mid-high, and high performance. The second two numbers stand for the core strength. So this means technically the 505 series can be drilled any way you would like because the mass bias doesn't really matter. It isn't a strong mass bias at all. The letters of course stand for the ball motion they want out of the ball. All we were talking about was the fact that the numbers on the ball will be changing soon, because the cores will be changing. Who knows maybe we will get a new series as well. Personally I'm hoping we do get a lower end ball. Just something for cheetah and viper so I can stay right longer.

Kid,

When you look at the names of our equipment, you may see another 505A down the road. However it isnt going to be the next following year after the first one is no longer made. Look at it like some makes in cars over the years. Take the Chevy Impala for example it had models from 57'-85', 94'-96', and then 2000-present. In those time periods you minor changes to the looks, and or about 3 years you didnt have it on production at all. It was then later introduced.

Same thing for the new Camaro, we had a few year period there where the car wasnt in production. Now it is back, the same can be done with these balls. You may see a new 505C, 715A, 930T down the road to complelty replace its counterpart in the line.
